Laine hasn't had any luck for a few years. If he ever finds his love of the game and starts giving a darn again his shot is still top of the league. Mathews and Bedard have a toe drag wrister that is very deceptive. Laine is just pure velocity. I've been watching for over 30 years and I've only heard top cheese maybe 5 times.

React to “Angry Geno is Score”

Never heard of top cheddar. Back in my days we either said he "roofed it" or called the shots a "bottle knocker" (knocking the goalies water bottle off the top of the net)

Top shelf or as longtime Penguin's announcer Mike Lange used to say, "he put that shot where grandma keeps the cookies."

I’ve actually heard of it, another way of saying it is “top cheese”

Kane, MacKinnon and Laine all have quick releases. They all had multiple clips when you were asking around the ~8min mark. Sharp angle goals aren't too uncommon but most players will try and bank it off the goalie than short side from a hard angle right in.

Would love to see a possible live stream where everybody can watch a game together and answer questions!

Alex Kovalev is one of the most talented players to ever play the game. He was amazing at picking the tiniest opening above the shoulder while shooting from the corner. Especially on the powerplay.

Kovalev has great hands and puck control. People compare him nowadays to Kane.

Love the reaction guys! This was a good selection of snipes - they've gotten more prevalent as time has gone on because a) the skill level of the players has risen so much, and b) the equipment has improved. The underappreciated part of a lot of these goals is that most of them are done with no preparation, no hesitation - just "get the puck and shoot" and they STILL hit tiny open spots of the net. Also - the sound of the puck hitting the post or crossbar and going in is one of my very favourite sounds in sports. Like the crack of the bat for a well hit ball in baseball, it's addictive and satisfying and lets you know you just saw something amazing.

We’re seeing more goals scored between the goalie’s head, shoulder, the post and the crossbar all the time. The shooters are getting so good they can bank it off the goalie’s mask and in. McDavid comes to mind, among many others.

This is standard practice for the elite shooters.

I’m amazed we didn’t hear a “Top shelf, where momma hides the cookies!”

Great vid! You guys should react to Evgeni Malkin, he's played behind Crosby since 2006 so he's underrated, but He's a top 3 player of the 2000s, behind Ovi and Crosby and is such an entertaining player to watch.

I don’t know if this was mentioned before but the net is often called the “4 by 6” because it is 4 feet high and 6 feet wide.

You guys need to check out Connor Bedard. Blackhawks #1 overall pick this last draft. He’s only got a little over a dozen nhl games in but you can look at junior highlights. He’s gonna be a stud in the league

Top ched is also my favourite hockey slang lol

mackinnon, crosby and kane were in this with multiple clips

Leon Draisaitl scored an all time snipe last season against the Winnipeg Jets that you guys have to look up

I'd love to watch your guy's reaction to all the goal horns and see which one is your favourite. Can you do a video like that?

Cheddar in North America is slang for money. Top shelf cheddar...money shot. Like pay the man.

Goalies have adapted the Butterfly style that covers the bottom 3/4 of the net, shooters now spend hours practicing shots that will hit over the shoulder and just under the crossbar. On any given night, the resounding crescendo of pucks clanging harmlessly off the pipes fill the arena, but a few get through for a great highlight reel

Pretty much all more recent games. You can't have a greatest all time snipe shots without including he likes of Al McInnis.

NHL's all star game skills competition might be worth a watch

Hockey slang is just fun. Glad you guys are in on a few of the basic ones!

Snipe - Sniper. Perfectly placed shot.

Love watching you guys do hockey stuff. I really like that you guys are watching other videos than fights and hits, those are great but hockey is more then just violence, it is a beautiful game.

I love how in a lot of these you can tell that the goalie was CONVINCED he had everything covered and there was no way the shooter could possibly score. 10:42 - Damo, did you mean to say that shot was like lightning because Kucherov played for the Lightning??

Also, still not sure you picked this part up but "snipe" is derived in this context from snipers; those who shoot long-barreled rifles from long range to hit a small target.

if you’re watching best snipes i believe all of them are gonna be goals. All of them went in.

MacKinnon scores MacKinnon scores Kane scores Kane with a beauty here's Laine shoots and scores down comes Laine with a snipe and scores Damo have we seen anyone do this more than once yet 😂😂😂

Love your hockey reations! I'd like to see what you think of Connor Bedard's performance at the 2023 World Junior Championships. He set a new all time scoring record for the tournament and it led to a gold medal for Canada.

If you like sharp angle goals, how about watching "Pierre Turgeon - Goals From Behind The Net" :P

Northen Native Canadian here. I've heard top cheese not a lot though. Top Shelf, Roof Job, Bar Down, Top Celly( Ceiling) my favorite when i played and use when my boy snipes one(hes 10) is Top shelf where Kookum keeps the Bannock. Kookum meaning grandmother in Cree and Bannock is a traditional native bread.

Growing up playing hockey in Canada, we would actually have drills practicing this

With the technology of the hockey sticks these days (the flex, kickpoints, all that), snipes are pretty much a regular occurrence in the modern NHL. The key to remember is that there's more skill in the NHL now than there's ever been, IMO. It's a combination of the sticks just getting better and more guys practicing their shots and the release (how quick the puck leaves their sticks) With the league only getting more competitive, guys are getting much better with their shots. So, what's even more impressive about these types of goals is that while, to most, they are obviously very accurate impressive shots, to these athletes it's just another day at the office. Goes to show how much skill is in the league now.

Brings to mind Kane's Cup winner against the Flyers in '10

A number of years ago, the goal nets were made a few inches shallower, so its a more common occurrence for the puck to hit the back of the net and come right back out.

imagine the reflex those goalers gotta have to follow the puck from those slapshots with a mask in your face and people tryn to get in your face to hide your vision field

Crosby is one of the all time best at that. More snipes would be fun

Oshie and Toews back to back. Go UND!

Amazing skills.

These are the goals where you just have to give props to the shooter. Not much you can do to stop them.

Need to do a Seattle Seahawks Legion of Boom reaction!!!!

Gotta react to the iron bowl all I can say is WOW

Also if there’s a recent (made in the last year) highlight reel of Kirill Kaprizov he has some absolutely insane sharp angle goals in his career

you guys should react to ore goals from stamkos and kane

Crazy how Steve Yzermans goal against the Blues isn't included in this video.

re: snipe - it makes more sense when you realize a 'sniper' is just someone with a very accurate shot (nothing to do with the top bar) . . . in the NHL skills competition, held annually, they put 10" dia targets in the 4 corners (which is why btwn the goalie's leg = 5-hole 😊) and the 'snipers' try & hit them. No surprise . . they ALL hit them . . then it becomes fastest time . . last yr Brock Nelson won in 12 secs Hockey 'newbies' (not you guys) might say the shooters are 'lucky' but the ALL the goalies study the snipers. No McDavid . . old video , okay but . . no Stamkos !!! He's top tier sniper. Also . . "cheese & cheddar" is only one specific commentator not a common term . . my personal fave ('cause, don't forget, this is right when the goal is scored & the commentator yells something . . like the now famous soccer/football "GOOOOOOOOOOOOOL") is: "That went straight to the attic where Gramma keeps the peanut butter" . . yup, he said it . . lolol Finally for any Brit to understand ?? . . we used to think Darts is just luck . . you can't 'aim' at the tiny spot !! . . 😅

For future reference it isn’t a bar down if it doesn’t make the signature PING of a bardownski as it rifles off the crossbar. A shot may hit the bar and go down but if it doesn’t make that ping it ain’t bar down

This compilation honestly underrepresents Ovi’s snipes but that’s partially due to the fact that so many of his goals have been shot from the same spot in the left circle so its a bit repetitive footage wise. You can either take this as he’s lazy or you can point out he’s been doing this for 18 years in the NHL and still no goalie has been able to super consistently stop it
